Is there any reason I can't give these to my cats if I break the pieces into smaller ones? thanks :}

Pure Bites makes a smaller package for cats (per oz it costs twice as much) so yes it is fine for cats. I buy the large dog size bag because it is cheaper that way. It has a long shelf life and is the most cost effective way to purchase this expensive but very worthwhile product. Then I just break the pieces into cat size chunks. It seems unfair that the smaller cat packages sold in the cat section should cost twice as much per oz.

My cat loves these treats too! I can't give one to the dog without the cat getting one. They both love them!

The pieces aren't that big to begin with. Don't know of any reason why you can't feed to a cat.

My cats love PureBites Chicken Treats. They are a wonderful source of high quality protein. I do break the bigger pieces into cat size treats. I have introduced new foods to my cats by sprinkling the small "chafe" on to the new food. I often use these treats to help a new foster cat settle into handling and for rewarding good behavior.

Absolutely! MUCH cheaper this way that at "the chain stores". They're super easy to "crunch up for cats", what we do for our 2 spoiled ones :)) Even out kitten can "gnaw" through these, as they're pretty much like "Styrofoam protein" forthe pets and are easily "crunched down". Our cats LOVE them.

Definitely perfectly fine for cats. My kittens, as others have said, love this treat. I don't break it into smaller pieces though as our vet said kitties' canine teeth are specifically used for ripping/shredding prey and it's good for them to do. One gets "growly" while eating, meaning he growls in low tones indicating it's HIS prey and he loves it which makes me very happy. Oftentimes he'll bat it around before devouring.

They are hard to break. In fact the my dog had a hard time crewing it. She was trying to chew up the kittys new toys, I caught her and she bite it in half. Hard for a cat to break threw it. I step on them all the time and they are still together.

I have a 17# Mini Australian Shepherd and give him the mini ones. I accidentally ordered the small size and have to break them in half for him. They do break easily, so you might want to figure if it's a better buy to do this or get the minis. My little guy does like them, unfortunately so do my 4 cats, so he has to make sure he finishes before the cats get to it. LOL

Maybe, if you don't fill them all the way. They are about the size of a quarter and 1/2" to 5/8" deep. It might also work if the treats are soft. I use them for dog biscuits for 2 small terriers, but both are strong chewers. I bake the treats longer than required to make them as crisp and dry as possible. You might want to leave the treats a little chewy for a cat. There is another pan that is shaped like little bones that might work better for you. The treats are smaller and can be broken into two pieces.

They sell these as a set and can't be purchased as separate pieces... I had the same issues when I purchased a new home and moved. I wanted to take these and a couple of them broke in trying to remove them. I contacted the manufacturer and was told they are only sold in sets.

I leave them, eventually they'll get "used". Later, in a couple of months, or so depending on how much your cat(s) use the box; they'll get tossed.

No I wouldnt use these, they are great for cats and small dogs even some medium ones..

We have used these for a long time with our three cats. In general, very safe to leave alone with cat/s UNLESS you notice your cat chewing the tails off; then you might want to use these as special toys for supervised playing:)

I haven't really had a problem breaking them. My dog is a Beagle and likes to just chew on the bigger pieces. Good luck

I would use them, I do not think they have catnip in them and they are sturdily made; they do not fall apart into multiple pieces--- my cats are ROUGH too!

They are large enough for my cats - and my cats are large. The two of them would not fit on one though, as they are big cats. BTW- they love it!

If you want to, you could buy another one and take out all of the small pieces from both sets. Just keep the small pieces and give it to them when they are a little bit older. That is way they can have their own set of food

I would be very careful with buying this product. If your cats have not finished growing then the box will be to small for them. There are more petals that fall on the floor because the box is not as secured. Our cats got use to the box really easily. Normally I have found if they need to go they will use any box.

Since your cats get along, I think one would work fine. In fact it should be quite comical to watch the two of them try to get the treats at the same time! enjoy

Faux fur, you can also reuse them by getting a container of catnip and dipping them back in once they are catnip free. They are a bit small in contrast to some other ones, but I have a 17lb cat and he just loves them and no problems with pieces coming off at all. I would buy these again for sure.

They make them specifically for cats too. They are so soft it's easy to break I prefer to buy the larger size because it's more economical. Then I just break them into two pieces.

They're pretty hard. I can break them into tiny pieces with my fingers and drop them into the food bowl. My stinky cat eats them, but another non-stinky cat won't eat them (but then, he only likes cheese for treats). So, if your cat won't eat them as treats, you might try crumbling them and putting them on his/her food.
